Bible Verse Review

lions: Genesis 49:9, Numbers 23:24, Numbers 24:9, Revelation 5:5

the like made: Heb. so made

Reciprocal: Ecclesiastes 2:4 - I builded

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps,.... There was a lion on each side of every step, a symbol of royal power, as before observed; so the Egyptians placed lions under the throne of Orus r:

there was not the like made in any kingdom; for the matter and form of it, for its grandeur and magnificence; there was none at least at that time, whatever has been since; for this is the first throne of ivory we read of.

r Hori Apoll. Hieroglyph, l. 1. c. 17.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Solomon’s throne, as described, is certainly grander than any of which we have a representation, either in Assyria or Egypt. Much more, then, would it transcend the thrones in inferior kingdoms.
